Shiny metal fixtures, a neon marquee, and bold blue-topped tables with matching bar stools announce the slick-and-easy “healthy alternative” vision of the tiny Gourmet Grill, like burgers in whole-wheat pitas and pizza topped by low-fat mozzarella. Low-cholesterol and low-sodium are constant themes of the wide-ranging menu, and only extra-virgin olive oil will do. Visibly fresh produce and tender grilled chicken cutlets fill sun-dried tomato or jalapeño wraps. With a zero-frills décor of four metal lamps dangling against a bare brick wall, the visual economy carries over into staffing, too, as the single server does double duty at the register. Patrons get the vibe and don’t malinger; instead, they stop by for a melt, grab a protein-packed smoothie, or phone in for delivery. Still, Gourmet Grill knows its strength: doling out zesty, filling, and guilt-free food without the high-end price tag or the artsy posture of most things “gourmet.” — Kate Appleton
